Default Handlebar questions

I am looking for a set of bars that will pullback approximately 2 inches over stock. For a 2008 FLHTC with TBW and ABS.
Nothing to drastic where I'll have to change cables or extend the wiring just need the grips a couple of inches closer to me ...suggestions?
Will the Heritage bars p/n 56902-08 work with the TBW?

Thanks!

I wanted about the same pullback and decided on Khromewerks +2 sweepers. However, I did put on a +4 clutch cable. Some guys here said they got by with a +2 cable with these bars. So this may not be what you want. There are many threads with this information, you might try a search.

I've been meaning to do this also, about the same type of pullback. Sounds kind of like a little pain to do it though, maybe I'm just lazy about this like washing my bike.
